An unexpected find! Today was cold and blustery. Snow & ice recently melted but the ground is still frozen. I wanted to walk out to #DenningsPoint but the trail is closed for the winter to protect nesting birds. Wandering around the back of the old brick works, I noticed a signs pointing towards an eagle viewing blind. After a short walk through the overgrown, former industrial marshland, I came across this shelter which offers a protected and safe place to view eagles. The American Bald Eagle was once nearly extinct in the #HudsonValley but they're making a good comeback. Will have to return with my binoculars one day.

A few photos from my walk at #DenningsPoint in #BeaconNY The skies were clearing after a dreary day yesterday and this morning and the sun was glistening just so off the calm waters of Fishkill Creek Bay. I enjoy coming here to take it all in and appreciate the ever changing character of the river. #HudsonValleyNY #HudsonRiver
